You can't place plants next to a house with a bay window. You can't color match windows and doors without making it look cookie cutter to every other build out there. I like that I can move objects on the walls side to side and up and down. Colors for tops don't match colors for bottoms in clothing and such. Same with the furniture. A couch and loveseat and chair set may not end up matching due to the color schemes allowed. I can't build a pool. I can't build fences to the lot boundary like on other sim games. You need to open a store or give us a color wheel. All the articles out there referencing how this is selling like Crazy in the UK, but obviously sales aren't so good that you can even think about a Sims 5 at this point. You would think with all the money people were spending on the Sims 3 game and items you would have been able to do a much better job with this before release. I definitely don't think you should even consider shutting down the Sims 3 website for the exchange and the store, because that is still going to be a huge money maker for your company and I think you know that. Even with the release of Sims4 there are still plenty of people playing 3 and spending their money over there and if you were to take that away I think you would lose a lot of gamers over that and with that lose all their potential sales for it as well. I do love the game play so far and I am not bothered that it cost as much as it did, but I do feel there should have been a lot more to it for the price. Being able to edit the worlds is a huge part of why 3 became so successful!
